Epiphone Kirk Hammett 1979 Flying V, Purple Metallic Overview

The Epiphone Kirk Hammett 1979 Flying V: Unleash the Sound of a Legend!

The Legacy of a Legend:
For Metallica fans around the world, the name Kirk Hammett is synonymous with iconic guitar playing. And at the heart of that legacy is the Kirk Hammett 1979 Flying V, the guitar that sparked his journey with Gibson. Inspired by legendary Flying V™ players and driven by his quest for a fuller, more impactful sound, this guitar has made its mark in the annals of rock history.

The Sound of Metal:
Kirk Hammett’s original 1979 Flying V played a pivotal role in shaping the sound of Metallica. This legendary guitar graced all the early Metallica albums, from “Kill 'Em All” to “The Black Album.” Its powerful, heavy tones are etched into the foundation of heavy metal, making it one of the most iconic guitars of all time.

A Meticulous Recreation:
Now, the Epiphone Kirk Hammett 1979 Flying V, a faithful recreation of Kirk’s beloved original, brings that legendary sound to your fingertips. This meticulously crafted instrument features a mahogany body, a one-piece mahogany neck with a volute for added strength, and Grover® Rotomatic® machine heads with distinctive “spade” buttons.

Unleash the Tone:
When it comes to sound, this Flying V doesn’t hold back. It’s equipped with a pair of Gibson USA Calibrated T-Type humbuckers™ that deliver the rich, resonant tone that made Kirk’s sound legendary. The electronics feature CTS® potentiometers, an Orange Drop® capacitor, a Switchcraft® 3-way pickup selector toggle switch, and a 1/4” output jack. This guitar is all about producing the tone you crave.

In Tribute to the Legend:
The rear of the headstock proudly displays Kirk Hammett’s iconic logo, paying homage to a musician who’s left an indelible mark on the world of rock and heavy metal. As a bonus, this guitar comes in a stylish black hardshell case with a luxurious red plush interior, ensuring it’s as protected as it is powerful.
